Can't Beat A Smiley Face

In an attempt to live up to my promise in wearing more color, I decided that I needed canary yellow shorts in my closet. (conclusions like that often happen in a heartbeat) Couldn't find one anywhere so did the next best thing, diy!

Got inspired by similar smiley shorts I saw at Bitching & Junkfood before. I know that the colors seem a little "too summer" (we're in monsoon season in PI) so I paired it with knee socks. It rains in the afternoon anyway so I think the look worked out fine.





These cut-out sleeve tops are everywhere but I didn't really wanna spend money buying one (plus I couldn't find one locally) so I just tweaked my favorite vintage polo. Fell in love with the color when I first saw it. It's a gorgeous, shiny eggplant shade. 


My little 90s grunge tribute. 

I still want to distress the shorts a bit more but I really just wanted to wear it asap. It's time consuming to distress denim. Will get around to that later on, I guess. Hope you're having a great week so far. Cheers!


Don't you just love that smiley face? :)
